"Here's the article in one step: Get a MacBook Pro or MacBook. Problem solved." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Very small menu, and not a restaurant. Much more a bar than an ethiopian food place." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Quality of the food was decent enough, it just had absolutely no flavor." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Means you're probably not a good iPhone developer, but that's just me." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Or you could just get an iPhone like everyone else." - Tristan O'Tierney

"It won't just set it off, it will kill it. Happened to one of my friends when they left their phone in the bathroom." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Then download the file you need immediately off the internet and install it for you so you don't even have to go find your installer CD. ZOMG THE FUTURE." - Tristan O'Tierney

Build your own carpet - Tristan O'Tierney

"You can ignore it's ugliness for it's QUALITY? Did you even read what you just said?" - Tristan O'Tierney

"The RIAA, have you heard of them? I'm pretty damn sure that's why Apple CAN'T make it easy to transfer it off of the iPod but does as little as possible to actually hinder it." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Great staff, amazing coffee, and free wifi. I consider myself a regular and would encourage more to come :)" - Tristan O'Tierney

"I'd tell you to go with the iPhone for one simple reason: The App Store. Brief example: I have an app to control iTunes, VLC, My mouse, and keyboard, my front row remote, and an official gesture based boxee remote app. My point with all this is, no other platform has even close to this traction. Could you imagine using your phone as a universal remote for your media center on a pre, a device that hasn't even shipped yet? This just scratches the surface of what it can do, and believe me once the iPhone dock connector opens up this summer (same time the pre comes out, and probably even the new iPhone) you'll see a dizzying array of hardware adapters for the phone that will turn it into everything from a medical utility capable of instantly sending your stats to a doctor. Will the pre have that? No. Honestly, you're wasting your money staying with Sprint and waiting out a phone that's going to have no traction due to the poor carrier install base (sprint) / US only launch (physical,..." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Apparently you haven't heard of the iPhone.." - Tristan O'Tierney

Formatted UITextField - Tristan O'Tierney

"I wish I could bury this article twice. Nearly half or more of the apps are Android only, despite the fact that it has 10x less apps than the iPhone? Biased crap." - Tristan O'Tierney

"WebKit's just a better engine. It's faster and more correct, for me. Not to mention firefox's UI is so out of place that it drives me up a wall. Did I mention it has no native integration with things like the Keychain to store my passwords?" - Tristan O'Tierney

"Completely and utterly buried. This is a TERRIBLE article, and all it does is bitch about how he can't handle email." - Tristan O'Tierney

"They're working on it. They've repeatedly said the reason is "This is likely going to be the interface for copy and paste on touch screens for 20 years to come. We want to get it right the first time because of it." So chill out, idiot." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Um, VISTA? Nuff said." - Tristan O'Tierney

Going to deep fry pickles now? - Ralph Whitbeck

That's what I told Quynh we should make! - Tristan O'Tierney

"Matt doesn't write for the show anymore. You think this pile of crap was his work?" - Tristan O'Tierney

"As a Obama GOTV (Get out the vote) volunteer, you are so very very wrong. Turn out this year was ONLY 64% of registered voters, which was sadly the highest turnout since 1908. The biggest problem with the voting system isn't getting a candidate elected, but getting people off their asses to actually get to the polls." - Tristan O'Tierney

New Camera - Tristan O'Tierney

"We don't have access to the music in the iPod app on your phone, and we can't put apps on the app store if we tried to use private apis. We're doing what we can though, and will be adding more music to our library in other ways." - Tristan O'Tierney

"It's hard to have a mixup when I'm sure they saw the kids coming out :P" - Tristan O'Tierney

"Come say hi sometime :P" - Tristan O'Tierney

"I live right down the block from this place, and it sure is a treat. I've had ethiopian from several different places, and of all of them this one is superb on all levels. The owner's very nice, and…" - Tristan O'Tierney

"Only on the new iPhone" - Tristan O'Tierney

"And yet NO ONE will care. Why? Because Apple has the consumer benefit of the doubt -- with smash hits like the iPod and iTunes, people are already convinced Apple consumer devices are better. Regardless of this, the iPhone IS better. It has a cleaner interface, it has better usability, it will have an app store that can fill every need your heart desires, from anywhere. Mark my words, the instinct will go down as a failure, like every other product that wants to be an "iProduct" killer." - Tristan O'Tierney

"Reminds me of this great picture from Ultima Online: http://www.otierney.net/images..." - Tristan O'Tierney
